By one measure, Dennis Kozlowski helped clean up Tyco International. The indicted ex-CEO gave laser-sharp focus to his successor, making it easy for new CEO Edward Breen to identify his top remediation task: restore investor confidence by exorcising Kozlowski's inner circle.
Breen, formerly president of Motorola, wasted little time. Immediately following his July 2002 appointment, he ousted about 50 executives who worked for Kozlowski — as well as the entire board that had hired Breen himself. Breen then assembled his own clean team, installing nine independent directors (Breen, the chairman, is the tenth), bringing aboard former United Technologies CFO David FitzPatrick as Tyco's new finance chief, and hiring Eric Pillmore, former CFO of Multilink Technology Corp., as chief governance officer.
Breen displayed good governance know-how, say experts, by having Pillmore answer to the board's nominating and governance committee, rather than another C-level executive. Tyco management maintains that the reporting structure, which they believe is unique, bolsters the board's oversight power.
Breen's mighty, swift sword encouraged interested observers. As brand expert and Lippincott Mercer senior partner James Bell tells it, Tyco is a capital markets brand, not a consumer brand, so cleanup efforts had to start with distancing the new Tyco from the old, corrupt Tyco.
Indeed, the Tyco tarnish was heavy. In January 2002, an in-house probe revealed major breakdowns in financial controls, including transparency problems in the plastics division and suspect operating income, related to dealer accounts, at the ADT unit.
Eventually Kozlowski and former CFO Mark Swartz resigned after being indicted on personal tax evasion charges — but not before the duo allegedly pilfered $600 million from the company. Federal charges chronicled lavish living by Kozlowski and his lieutenants at the expense of shareholders. The main offenses: abuse of executive loan programs, self-dealing transactions, unapproved bonuses, unauthorized pay, and fraudulent stock sales.
In short order, Breen expanded the ongoing internal audit into a full-scale, independent investigation that kept 25 lawyers and 100 accountants busy for five months. The forensic team uncovered breakdowns in the control processes associated with executive compensation, and problems with reported revenues, profits, cash flows, use of reserves, and non-recurring charges, among other financial shortcomings.
So far, several repair measures have been implemented, says a Tyco spokesman Gary Holmes, including splitting up the plastics group into two reporting segments, changing the definition of free cash flow to include cash paid for the acquisition of new dealer accounts, detailing free cash flow by reporting segment, and providing details of how "organic growth" is calculated.
Planning for the Long Term
Recall that growth at Tyco under Kozlowski and Swartz was anything but organic. It was a "smash and grab mentality," says research analyst Brian Langenberg, a principal at Langenberg & Co in Chicago. "The focus was to make short-term gross margins, and they did," but Kozlowski and Swartz never wanted to spent time on integrating companies to extract efficiencies, says Langenberg. "They weren't hitting their numbers the right way."

Last post on same remodel was related to drain issues and potential for all tile wet room concept.
After considering concrete excavation and time issues (never enough), I am now considering a receptor with very low (3/4" or so) lip (I don't want a "ramp," just an extended lip) ... problem is that I can't find many choices ... appears to be a specialty item with few manufacturers ...
http://www.barrierfree.org has a few examples, but everything is pretty much ship to order - would appreciate info on manufacturers ...
Check with a cultured marble installer.
Thanks, Jimbo ... the schematic shows a 7/8" lip, but it looks vertical and is designed to connect up to the ramp ... while this works, it looks to be an ad hoc way to solve the problem ... have seen at least one design with a complex angle approach for the lip that looks like it would keep water in pretty well ...
Just found another supplier - American Reinformed Plastics - Tacoma ... Model# S-6034-BFP ... 1 1/2" lip from outside, but 3/4" of that would be eaten up by the adjoining tile work ...
Check out the AKW line.
Very low build up and with a little 1/2" cement board outside the shower you can build a barrier free shower.
email@example.com - www-no-curb.com - 604 506 6792
Always get construction advice double checked by your local city hall. Flood Test Every Shower - Every Time.
Just found another - comfortdesignsbathware.com ... several shower solutions - don't know if the base can be used a s standalone receptor, yet.
Found another supplier - Aker by Maax ... enclosures only, and a bit simpler design with a 2" vertical lip ... the tile will take about 3/4 inch so should be able to still roll over the lip. Probably not ADA compliant, but functional and may be better at retaining water inside.
You do not want a lip of more than 1/2" if you plan to roll in.
Schluter makes a ramp for tile.
1 1/4" elevation change will need a tapered ramp a good 2' 1/8" to make rolling in easy. If the lip is on the inside you will not be able to get out or possibly even turn to your right or left.
Be careful with this and make a test rig before purchasing.
A custom tiled shower or a pan like I mentioned from AKW is a much safer bet for a better preforming shower.
firstname.lastname@example.com - www-no-curb.com - 604 506 6792
Always get construction advice double checked by your local city hall. Flood Test Every Shower - Every Time.
So, after checking out all the options, I had to eliminate Mustee (can't find a center drain in their line of low/no barrier), AKW (availability issue here likely related to shipping costs) ... further, after laying out on the floor, I really need a 30" depth to avoid interference and at least 60" length to allow suitable entry access. The only 30-32" depth one is from BestBath, and they have 3/4"-2" threshold lips - if I were to go with 2", the tile would net it out to a bit over 1" ... which would still be OK - not ADA compliant but the shower will not be for "independent living."
Since I can't install an entire system with membrane, etc, perhaps the 2" would be best approach - it is going on concrete floor ... I understand the risks and will take extra care on sealing, etc.
Check out www.best-bath.com
They have the largest selection that I am aware of and they are excellent quality with a 30 warranty included. You will need to buy from a dealer as they don't sell directly. I carry them and would be happy to assist you www.universaldesignspecialists.com or just to give you more info if you need it.
In addition to all the good sites recomended, Swanstone has a lot of Universal Design options as well!
Just got finished ...floor remodel done except for speakers, etc ...ended up using a Laskey (now Aquatic) located in South Boston, VA ...went to plant as it was near the house ...very nice products...got one of their low lip receptors and it installed no issues ...had brass drain connector fitting with it, even. Lip was kind of graduated, but front edge was only 3/4" so was perfect. Nice acrylic finish and very substantial with fiberglas structure.

Thursday, April 24, 2014
By Eric Tucker / The Associated Press
(Continued from page 1)
A woman hugs a man before entering the Washington Navy Yard as employees return to work Thursday. The Washington Navy Yard returned to nearly normal operations three days after it was the scene of a mass shooting in which a gunman killed 12 people.
The Associated Press
Alexis had with him during the massacre a handgun he picked up inside the building and a legally obtained Remington 870 Express shotgun.
The shotgun was brought into the building disassembled and pieced together by Alexis once inside, according to a law enforcement official and a senior defense official who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.
That firearm would not be covered under a proposed weapons ban supported by the White House. The ban was introduced in the Senate earlier this year and would prohibit 157 specific firearms designed for military and law enforcement use, and it would exempt more than 2,200 others.
The rampage and shootout spanned more than 30 minutes. One District of Columbia police officer was shot and wounded in the legs but survived. The U.S. Capitol Police, which protects members of Congress and Congressional buildings, announced Wednesday that it has ordered an investigation into the force's response. The fact review team is expected to look into reports that one of the force's tactical response teams arrived within minutes of the shootings and was told by a Capitol Police supervisor to stand down. The Navy Yard is less than three miles from the Capitol complex.
Senate Sergeant at Arms Terrance Gainer said in an email that if the reports are accurate, "It would be an unbearable failure. The Police Board will conduct a review of all facts related to our response."
The shooting also raised questions about the adequacy of background checks for government contractors who have access to sensitive information. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel has also ordered two sweeping reviews of military security and employee screening programs, acknowledging Wednesday that "a lot of red flags" may have been missed in the background of the Washington Navy Yard shooter.
"Obviously, there were a lot of red flags," Hagel told reporters at a Pentagon briefing. "Why they didn't get picked, why they didn't get incorporated into the clearance process, what he was doing – those are all legitimate questions that we're going to be dealing with."
Navy Secretary Ray Mabus, meanwhile, announced Wednesday night that he wants three rapid reviews completed by Oct. 1, including whether a contracting company should inform the Navy if it decides to review a worker's security clearance.
That order raises questions about whether the company that employed Alexis, the Florida-based IT consulting firm The Experts, had decided to review his clearance. A security clearance often is critical for contractors working in defense jobs.
President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama are expected to attend a memorial service for the shooting victims Sunday.

LAS VEGAS, April 30, 2005 -- Mighty Mo's meat-and-potatoes punching attacks stymied Remy Bonjasky's finesse, and the squat American scored a major upset, defeating the Defending K-1 World GP Champion today at the Bellagio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
Olympic Stadium
Choi Wins K-1 Asian GP; Bonjasky Dispatches Mercer
SEOUL, March 19, 2005 -- Making big waves in his K-1 debut, Korean fighter Hong-Man Choi turned aside three opponents to win the Asian Grand Prix in Seoul. Choi picks up a shiny trophy and a check for ¥6 million (about US$55,000/45,000) with the victory, and becomes the first fighter in 2005 to qualify for the K-1 World GP Final Elimination tournament, set for Osaka this September.
Choi is a giant of a man, standing 218cm (7'2") and tipping the scales at 157kg (346lbs). A former Korean Sireum wrestling champion (a sport similar to Japanese sumo), Choi is a national hero in Korea, loved as much for his warm personality as his cool fighting style. In pre-tournament interviews, the big guy with the big smile singled out Jerome LeBanner as his K-1 role model. He also told the hundreds of journalists in attendance the he had worked extra hard on his boxing technique in preparation for this tournament and developed his kicks and fight strategy with one of the best, K-1 Seidokaikan star Nicholas Pettas of the Spirit Gym in Tokyo.
Where some gigantic fighters have been gigantic flops in K-1, Choi's combination of power, youth (he is but 23) and speed (for his size) proved a winning formula.
The tournament began with a bout between Qing Jun Zhang, who at just 18 years of age was the youngest participant; and Kaoklai Kaennorsing of Thailand, who won it all here last year to take the first K-1 Asia GP.
Zhang had been criticized for a lack of aggression in his decision win over Akebono last year, but here he rushed in from the bell with punches and low kicks. When a Kaoklai high kick missed midway through the first, Zhang was quick with an overhand counter. But Kaoklai remained calm, tossing enough kicks in to keep the first round even. In the second, Zhang was first in again, getting past with punches then working knees from the clinch, while Kaoklai looked less than sharp. Just seconds from the end of the round, Kaoklai launched a flying kick that rattled his opponent, but Zhang was saved by the bell. In the third, Kaoklai launched more attacks, and was quick on the counters to take a narrow but unanimous decision. The much improved Zhang need not be terribly disappointed, at this rate of development he clearly has the potential to do good things in K-1.
Korean Muay Thai fighter Myeon Ju Lee took on Hiraku Hori of Japan in the second bout. Lee is a former Korean Muay Thai Association Heavyweight Champion, but Team Dragon kickboxer Hori brought a 10cm (4") height and 10kg (25lb) weight advantage to this contest. Both of these fighters had struggled as of late, losing a combined five of their last six bouts.
This was a very good match, both fighters connecting early with plenty of straight punches, Hori the southpaw looking better with the high kicks. By midway through the bout, Lee was bleeding from the nose, and Hori seemed to be taking control. The Japanese fighter showed superior technique to continue his domination into the third -- but Lee, buttressed by the partisan crowd, bravely stood his ground, popping a right hook through late in the round to snap Hori's head back. But here and throughout, it was the Japanese fighter who controlled the distance and hence the fight.
And so it was Hori through to the semis with a unanimous decision -- a win all the more satisfying to witness when Hori pulled his arm away from the referee who had raised it in victory, and went over to warmly congratulate Lee.
The next matchup put former Sumo Grand Champion Akebono, representing Japan, in against Nobuaki Kakuda, a Japanese Seidokaikan master coming out of retirement for this fight.
Akebono desperately wanted to notch his first K-1 win after five consecutive defeats, but the muscular Kakuda, who turns 44 next month, looked in good shape and light on his feet. The first round was surprisingly eventful, Kakuda playing hit and run, Akebono repeatedly bulldozing his opponent into the ropes then bringing up the knees. It was during one such exchange that Akebono slipped a right punch in to score his first-ever down in K-1.
Although Kakuda tried to rally with punches, the 30 cm (11") height and 130kg (280lb) weight advantage were working for Akebono, who continued the push and punch attack in the second to score a second down, again with a right hook. Bulk and age took their toll, and the pace slowed considerably as the fight wore on -- the two men almost motionless by the end of the second.
In the third, Kakuda snapped some nice punches up toward Akebono's head, but the Sumo Champion weathered these, hanging on to take the win on points and earn a trip to the semis.
Choi's first-tier fight opponent was a Japanese Sumo wrestler, 38 year-old Wakashoyo, who made his entrance in a purple Japanese yukata. Choi got a much warmer reception when he strode into the ring wrapped in a bright red Korean han-bok gown.
The bout started with Wakashoyo pushing Choi back into the ropes and throwing punches. But Choi got the clinch to stymie the attack, and after the break, to the crowd's delight, reversed the momentum. The atmosphere in the arena was electric, and when Choi got a left through to score a down, it was rapturous. Wakashoyo kept on coming, but Choi was always better, and midway through the first he clocked his opponent with a right punch to the head to score a second down and advance to the semis.
The first of the semis saw Kaoklai school Hori. Early on, Hori grabbed an attacking Kaoklai leg and, as the Thai fighter fell, held on a little longer than expected. This visibly irritated Kaoklai, and we have seen before how dangerous it can be to get Kaoklai mad. From that point on this was a mean fight, Hori trying in vain to bear down on his opponent, Kaoklai relentlessly firing in the kicks. Near the end of the round, Kaoklai showed some skill with his fists, catching Hori with his guard down and swinging in a right to score a down.
In the second, Kaoklai stayed quick and light, several times ducking clear of Hori's high kicks, then smiling at his own evasive skill to further intimidate his opponent. In the third, Kaoklai fought with the finesse that has made him one of the best. So nimble was his footwork, so superior his evasive techniques that the Thai fighter kept his guard down the entire round, inviting Hori to come at him before punishing him with hard kicks. It was an easy call for the judges: Kaoklai through to the final.
The second semifinal was a dream showdown between two traditional wrestling masters -- Choi the Sireum Champion, Akebono the Sumo Champion. Thus far in his K-1 career, Akebono had grown accustomed to a break of several months between bouts, but due his win against Kakuda now he was back in the ring for an unprecedented second fight in a single night. How would he hold up against Choi, who had youth on his side, and the energy of the crowd to draw upon?
Not very well, as it happened. The bout started with the pair standing toe-to-toe, trading punches. Choi was delivering the better of these, looking particularly good with the left, and Akebono was forced to the defensive. The two went to the clinch twice, and when the fight resumed it was more of the same -- Choi using his reach, just a little better with the fists. As the round neared its midway point, it became evident that something was wrong with Akebono. The limping fighter looked toward his corner with pain etched on his face, and in a flash the towel came in to end the fight. Anti-climatic though it was, Choi had the win and a trip to the final. Akebono, it was later revealed, had aggravated an injury to the left shin suffered in his fight with Kakuda.
Wanna talk 'David and Goliath'? Well, the final was about as 'David and Goliath' as it gets, Choi more than doubling Kaoklai's weight and towering a full 38cm (1'3") above the Defending Champion. If that wasn't enough, Choi was relatively fresh here, having fought scarcely two minutes on the night, whereas Kaoklai had logged a full six full rounds.
The fight was something of a physics experiment. It began with Choi planting himself center-ring, clamping his right fist to his chin and extending his left; and Kaoklai circling, looking for a way to chop that tree down.
The first thing Kaoklai tried was darting in with low kicks, but despite his best efforts he could not get under Choi's reach to connect with the Korean's legs, as Choi proved more than capable at backing out of harm's way, With Kaoklai's low kicks arcing harmlessly through the air, the first round was scored even on all cards. Kaoklai adapted a strategy of charge-and-clinch in the second, but Choi would have none of it, and used raw strength to peel Kaoklai off his torso then put in punches. Kaoklai did manage, somehow, to leap up and score with a dandy high kick here, but it must be said that Choi was better with his graceless mauling, and he started to take the lead.
In the third, Choi was more aggressive, pounding Kaoklai with his fists and working the knees from the clinch, while Kaoklai picked up a yellow card for excessive retreating. Soon afterward, almost comically, Kaoklai took to blindly tossing punches up toward Choi's head from the clinch, but it was becoming increasingly evident that the Thai wunderkind was just not going to get it done against a fighter of Choi's size and power. Both fighters laughed frequently as this one wore down, with the crowd equally enjoying their hometown hero's dominance and Kaoklai's valiant attempts to overcome it.
One judge liked Choi after three, but the other two saw a draw, so the fight went to an extra round. Kaoklai finally connected with a low kick here, and got nice contact with a right to the head -- but, again, Choi's smothering attacks were effective enough, he was able to corral his opponent into the corner then let fly with the punches and knees, leaving Kaoklai little choice but to duck out and run away.
At the end of it all, and while neither fighter had inflicted a whole lot of damage on the other, judges had to pick a winner and went with Choi. And once again, the crowd went wild.
"I want to thank my coach and all my fans," the emotionally overwhelmed Choi said afterward, "this fighting has made me hungry, let's all go eat!"
There were also three Superfights on the card:
Defending K-1 World Grand Prix Champion Remy Bonjasky of the Netherlands stepped in against former HBO Heavyweight Champion boxer Ray "Merciless" Mercer of the United States.
You had to like Mercer entering the ring to the music of classic Public Enemy, which sounded as edgy here as it did when it was recorded 20 years ago. But Bonjasky, "The Flying Gentleman," won the retro playoff, waltzing to the accompaniment of Ennio Morricone's soundtrack music for the 1966 film "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly."
Alas, this fight was neither good, nor bad, nor ugly: It was, one could say, a 'non-fight.' The bell sounded, the pair moved toward one another, dancing a little, and then the first strike -- a Bonjasky high kick -- caught Mercer fully on the left side of his head. The American stepped back, and it was clear from the fog in his eyes that there was no reason to let him continue. Disappointing as it was for the crowd, the referee made the correct decision by calling this one off right after the standing count, as to let the dazed Mercer continue meant flirting with serious injury. A KO win for Bonjasky at just 22 seconds of round one.
"I am disappointed that it was over so quickly, because I wanted to show fans more," said Bonjasky in his post-fight interview. "But it was a direct hit, and a good hit, but I can't help that!"
Three-time K-1 World Grand prix champion Peter Aerts of the Netherlands took on Carter Williams of the United States in another highly-anticipated Superfight. The 2003 K-1 USA Champion, Williams was confident that he could use this bout to get his K-1 career back on track after some recent setbacks. "I'm a next-generation fighter," said Williams pre-fight," you will see, the American Hurricane is going to come through with fists of fury!"
Aerts worked the low kicks in the first, trying to wear down Williams' left leg, while the American frequently led with the left punch, but could not put the combinations together against his opponent. In the second Williams was more aggressive, working the hard low kicks to effect. It was close heading into the third, and it is hard to see how either fighter would have figured they were ahead, yet neither did a whole lot here to try and outscore their opponent. In the end it was a good technical fight, which showed Williams as a maturing fighter. However, being ten years younger than Aerts, one might have expected Williams to turn up the heat in the late going, which he did not do -- where were the "fists of fury"? The judges saw a draw, and so the bout went to a tiebreaker round.
Here again the exchanges were fairly even, but Aerts caught a bit of a break when a routine-looking attack set Williams to stumbling backward awkwardly. For a moment Williams looked to have twisted his ankle, in any case he was unable to fight and so was assessed a standing count. This proved the difference on the scorecards -- call it experience over youth if you like, anyway Aerts got the trophy.
The third Superfight saw behemoths Semmy Schilt of the Netherlands and Montanha Silva of Brazil lock horns. This one was over just about a minute into the first round, when Schilt put a low kick in to throw Silva off balance, then deftly followed it up with a left hook for the KO.
In the tournament reserve fight, tough guy Tatsufumi Tomihira of Japan got a high kick up and then put the knees in to score two first-round downs and record the win against Min Ki Kang of Korea. In an undercard fight, Yong Seok Ko of Korea beat compatriot Jong Man Kim by majority decision.
Since K-1's first foray to Seoul last July, the sport's popularity has rocketed in Korea. Pop singing star Hye-Seong Shin sang the Korean national anthem during splashy opening ceremonies, which also featured a special ring appearance by K-1 star Ray Sefo and a novel dancing kata display by a group of local Taekwondo kids.
The K-1 Asian Grand Prix 2005 attracted 15,918 fans to the Olympic Gymnasium in Seoul.

Feel the shock of an icy waterfall — two fists of crystal froth, crashing down a granite wall, framed by a tangle of vines. With a rope secured around your waist and anchored to the top of the rock, you start rappelling, creeping backward down the 150-foot vertical face. You're in the heart of the Costa Rican jungle, feeling helpless on these massive rocks, trying to manage your fear — and not to look down. But you're not alone. Below, one of your colleagues is anchored to terra firma, guiding you down from a place where every step could be your last.
"It's a long way down, or up, and it looks insurmountable," recalls Rassami Hök Ljungberg, director of communications for Razorfish Europe, which brought 30 employees — or "fish," as they're called — to Costa Rica last fall for a weeklong Outward Bound experience. "I didn't have a problem climbing up or down those waterfalls, or putting my life in someone else's hands. But it was hard when I was on the other end of the rope, and someone else had to trust me to secure him. I thought, 'If I do something wrong, this person could die!'"
Dubbed Catapult 2.0, last fall's program was a second incarnation: Catapult 1.0 sprang to life in 1999 as the brainchild of Jeff Daiches, CEO of the 6-year-old, New York City — based global digital solutions provider. The 30 participants who found themselves under a waterfall or out on a limb were considered Razorfish's rising stars: They were hand-picked by the heads of the company's 15 offices in nine countries as outstanding "fish" who fit the company's profile for emerging leaders.
In 1.0, Catapultees had participated in four-day workshops on weekends once a month for four months in Rogue River, Ore. Then the company decided it would be more cost-effective and less disruptive to consolidate the program into an intensive eight-day experience, organized in collaboration with Hurricane Island Outward Bound in Rockland, Maine.
"We decided early on that one of the best ways to achieve the greatest degree of personal and group development in a short time was to take people far outside their comfort zone," says Cindy Pound, Catapult's program director. "It's a great way to move quickly beyond cultural or personal barriers, to equalize people and get them thinking collaboratively."
Outward Bound's training style was in sync with the Razorfish company environment. "Their corporate culture is real go-getter," observes Bob Gordon, director of professional development programs at Hurricane Island. "They fight to get a project done on time. They're highly motivated to be number one."
Classroom vs. Real-World
The program, which ran from November 4 to November 12, began at the company's headquarters with a series of six workshops led by Razorfish's top executives. Each presented a business problem related to his or her area of expertise. The Catapultees then broke into small groups and generated solutions, which they presented to the leaders.
"The goal was to give participants an understanding of our executive leadership team — their roles, responsibilities and major challenges," says Charlie White, Razorfish's director of network services on the West Coast. Getting feedback from the executives about their solutions was a real learning experience for participants. "We saw how complex their problems are and how difficult and time-consuming it can be to solve them," recalls Ljungberg.
"People had to help each other navigate through some tough terrain. By the time they had reached their destination, they were exhausted — but in high spirits."
— Charlie White, director of network services, Razorfish
The Catapult schedule called for participants, along with Charlie White, Cindy Pound, and a team of nine people from Outward Bound, to fly to San Jose, Costa Rica's capital, the morning of November 6. "We had our first unplanned leadership experience when we got to JFK and found that our flight was canceled," jokes White. "Some of the Catapultees took charge and got us booked on a different flight from LaGuardia, while others arranged for transportation there."
The group's first foray once in Costa Rica was a two-hour ride in cattle trucks into Costa Rica's back country, over dirt roads, up and down hills, and through areas of startling beauty. Because of delays, the second half of the trek was done in the dark, through rain and mud. Then they group split into three squads, each paired with several people from Outward Bound.
"The squads were responsible for leading themselves through the jungle trails to the place where we were staying," says White. "People had to help each other navigate through pretty rough terrain: riverbeds, rocky trails, and knee-deep mud." One team member became so thoroughly winded that her teammates decided to take her backpack and distribute the contents among themselves. By the time they reached their destination, everyone was exhausted and soaking wet — but they were in high spirits.
For the next two days, base camp was a 40-by-60-foot open-air hut with a tin roof, the home of a local family. The Catapultees bedded down in sleeping bags, shared the outhouse, drank water from a stream, and ate meals heavy on rice and beans. "They were just fantastic," says Ljungberg of the host family. "Everyone was so friendly to us, even with the language problem."
The day after they arrived, the Catapultees tried their hand at waterfall rappelling, waterfall climbing, and tree climbing. "The outcomes of those activities were all about coaching and support," says Eric Denny of Outward Bound. "If I'm about to climb up the waterfall, what do I need from a coach on the ground? Moral support? Words of approval? Or guidance, like pointing out where the handholds are? Talking through the kind of support you need is an important transfer point to being a leader."
Denny checked in once or twice a day with Pound and White to get a sense of how the group was holding up. "One of the things you have to do, just as you would in business, is constantly monitor the dynamics," says Gordon. "If you see that the group really needs some down time, you want to have the flexibility to go where they need to go."
All of the activities had been carefully mapped out in advance by Pound, Gordon, and Denny. Gordon, who didn't go on the trip, went to Costa Rica beforehand with several Outward Bound staff to do the setup work. "We ran through all the program events while we were there, because you have to know the environment and the logistical pieces so that you can maximize the flow and the learning."
Different White Water
In the next phase of the journey, the Catapultees retraced their steps to the village where they had begun their jungle trek, formed new teams, and boarded white-water rafts. They were immediately plunged into class 3 and 4 rapids. "The level of complexity was pretty difficult," recalls White. About a third of the way down the river, the rains swept in, bringing with them a mass of chilly air. "People suddenly got very cold, and there was a lot of sharing of personal items to keep warm."
For Ljungberg, it was a frightening experience. "I was in one of the only rafts that didn't overturn," she says. "But no one really got hurt. One woman fell into the water and bruised her foot. She was OK, but it was really scary for the rest of us to see her go floating down the river."
The rafting experience was designed to focus on situational leadership. "Each leader had the raft for half a day," says Denny. "Before you'd go out, you'd talk to your crew, decide who would do what, plan how you want to run the rapids. After the run, you'd come back and evaluate everything. How effective was your leadership style? Was the team clear about your goals, and its own roles? What would you change next time?"
Fatigue was a very real part of the whole adventure. "We were up late, and Costa Rica was tiring," says Denny. "But in Razorfish's world, where a project team has to build an entire IT solution for a major financial institution and they [the clients] want it yesterday, that kind of fatigue is exactly what these people are going to face."
The next day, the group rafted to the Pacific Ocean and hiked about two miles along a pristine beach to a wooden bungalow, where they made camp. In the early evening, the Catapultees all headed out for six-hour "solos" — the only period of sustained, solitary reflection they had had all week.
"That's an important part of the action-learning cycle," says Denny. "It's about getting alone on a beautiful beach with no one around and having time to process your thoughts, think about your personal action plans and about what you've learned about yourself over the past few days."
On the last day, Catapultees woke up anticipating a killer challenge. "We had prepped people for this enormous final event, something like crossing crocodile-infested rivers," quips Gordon. So, to knock people off balance, we engaged them in an activity that was analogous to the projects they were going to be leading and managing at home."
Using bits of Costa Rica's natural environment — a palm frond, a piece of driftwood — participants were directed to build real catapults that they could use to propel coconuts into the sea. The teams were given an hour and a half to create their products, as well as a marketing presentation, for a prospective buyer.
"It was a great way to culminate this whole event," says Gordon. "It really played into Razorfish's remarkably creative culture."
What Was the ROI?
"In Razorfish's world, where a project team has to build an entire IT solution for a client and they want it yesterday, this is exactly the kind of fatigue they'll face."
— Eric Denny, Outward Bound
During the trip, daily evaluations were conducted with Catapultees. Other assessment tools were built in as well. "The program has success metrics in place," says Pound. "Each Catapultee, in both 1.0 and 2.0, underwent a 90-day assessment, and they'll have six-month and one-year assessments." Coyle is working closely with Pound, using that feedback as the basis for the design for the next Catapult (which is not yet scheduled).
As for Rassami Ljungberg, her eyes were opened in two significant ways. "First, I learned the importance of clear strategy and clear leadership — how crucial it is to give all your team members a distinct vision of where you're headed. That was my foremost lesson.
"Second, being thrown together with 29 people from different nationalities and disciplines, I developed a fantastic network to call on. It really helps to be able to pick up the phone and say, 'I have this question, or this problem. How do you think I should solve it?' I had never interacted with these people before. Now we know we're there for one another."

» 12/4/13 - Tori Murden McClure will be Division III keynote speaker at 2014 NCAA Convention
Hope College President Jim Bultman and Western Connecticut State University President Jim Schmotter have been elected chair and vice chair, respectively, of the Division III Presidents Council for the 2011-12 term.
Both will assume their new roles with the Council at the conclusion of the 2011 NCAA Convention in San Antonio.
Jim Bultman
Bultman is currently the vice chair of the Council. He will replace Widener University President Jim Harris, whose term as chair and as a Council member ends after the 2011 Convention. Bultman's Council term extends through the 2013 Convention.
Bultman, a 1963 graduate of Hope, became the 11th president of the college in July 1999. He joined the college as a faculty member in 1968 before chairing the department of education from 1976 to 1982. He was dean of the social sciences from 1982 until 1985. Bultman is familiar with intercollegiate athletics, having served as head baseball coach at Hope from 1971 to 1985 and as an assistant football coach from 1970 to 1984.
He became president at Northwestern College in Orange City, Iowa, in 1985 and stayed in that role until moving to Hope in 1999.
Bultman graduated from Hope with a major in chemistry. He holds a master's degree and doctorate in educational leadership from Western Michigan University.
Jim Schmotter
Schmotter, whose term on the Presidents Council also extends through the 2013 Convention, became president of Western Connecticut State in August 2004.
He arrived there from Western Michigan, where he served as dean of the Haworth College of Business for seven years. Before that, he served as dean of the College of Business and Economics at Lehigh University. In his 14 years at the Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell University, he served as associate dean and director of international studies, and taught business history and international management.
Schmotter earned his bachelor's degree in history at Muskingum College. He received his doctorate in Colonial American history at Northwestern University and studied higher education administration at Columbia University.

Football Scoring Contest - Week 5
posted at 10/1/2013 9:18 AM EDT
(1) Pick one NFL team each week(2) You can not pick the same team twice (similar to survivor/knockout)(3) You receive the number of points equal to what your team scored(4) Your selection must be logged before kickoff of the game you choose(5) The Regular Season winner is the person with the most points at the end of the 16-game season 6) Every participant will select one BYE week. You can choose any week you want. You don't need to select that week in advance. If you fail to make a selection by Kickoff time and you have not used your BYE week, then you will automatically get a BYE for that week. 7) Playoffs: The top 12 participants by points at the end of the regular season will make the playoffs. Then, those 12 people will pick the one real playoff team whose playoff points they want. The regular season winner picks first, the second place finisher picks second and so on. The 12th place finisher is stuck with the last team not chosen. Regular season points do not count toward playoff totals. In case of a tie, the playoff champion will be the team that advances the furthest.8) 18% gratuity is added to your bill. Games for Week 5: (note there is a Thursday game this week - Bills @ Browns)http://www.nfl.com/schedules/2013/REG5
Registered Players, Standings, and Used Picks: (be sure to check here for teams you have already used)https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApTac4mgdC6ldHJMYUZ0eUdlbnA1b01DRHE1WEdROGc&usp=sharing
Note to Philskiw1: You picked the Saints late on Sunday. I did not see that in time to let you know you had already picked them in an earlier week. Since you have not used your BYE week I automatically used it for your pick. Once again the Broncos provided the top points for the week (52) and many game players chose them. That group included our leader Cyberknot who lengthened his lead. AyyyBoston (104) is the leader of game players who have taken a BYE. On a personal note 52 points is more than I have for the whole season so far.Pic Winner for Week 4: The commissioner had to go to a 2nd ballot before selecting TFB12 in a close vote. Here are the top 12 right now (top 12 at the end of the season make the playoffs):Player Name Point TotalCyberknot 158ghostofjri37 140PHILZONE686 138Quagmire3 136digger0862 13556redsox 134jimmytantric 134Muzwell 134NEGAME2 134coolade2 132LuvsThosePats 130freediro 126

Man, I just realized that in a 16 game season you only pick half the league ... I was thinking that every team would be picked making it more challenging...oops. actually that would be an interesting variation, picking 2 teams each week totaling every team in the league at the end.

Some people do not enjoy exercising, are you one of them?
It is a solid ritual: my friends have to play long rounds of football every Tuesday and Saturday afternoon. They enjoy every aspect of the sport. Some people do not seem to feel motivated to try any type of exercise no matter what. For this i have provided some guidelines you can follow that will surely have you striving for a workout.
Ask yourself the following questions:
1. Do you have a motivated partner? We all know how we get after a whole day of work. Do you want to get rid of the extra weight? Do you desperately need to tone up? How do we feel motivated? The secret is to find commonality with other people. People, if they are driven, usually motivate each other to workout. Does your friend want to exercise? Well, this is your chance to call your friend and start your workout now. When committing to another person, you will feel obligated to start, and once you start the rest is easy.
2. Do you have the right shoes? Walking shoes are different than running shoes. Football shoes are different than cycling shoes. Basketball shoes are different than all previous shoes.
"The biggest mistake people make when they start running, jogging, or doing any exercise program, is just reaching into the closet and pulling out an old pair of sneakers," says Tracie Rodgers, PhD, an exercise psychologist.
To choose the cross-trainer best for you, please look for:
- A firm heel
- Ideal support (you shouldn't be able to bend the shoe too easily)
- Lightweight (you don't want to add a lot of kilograms to your feet)
- Do you have an arch?
Another feature to consider is: How old are your shoes? If you work out once in a while, you should replace your shoes every year, otherwise you should replace your shoes every six months.
3. Do you have the right outfit? If no, update your wardrobe: Most people get dramatically motivated once they shop for the perfect workout outfits. Most brands are focusing on style, comfort, breathability etc. Find a great outfit and find yourself enthusiastic enough to use your gym membership.
4. Do you enjoy dancing? Dancing is a wholesome activity that can be a sensational cardiovascular workout for people who enjoy dancing. If you want to dance, finding a dance school near you is easy, especially in Beirut, Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Many local dance instructors adopt new genres. Did you hear about Zumba dancing? It is the new fitness craze that fuses both Latin and International music providing and effective vigorous cardio workout.
5. Do you like music? Listen to your favorite music. Do you get bored after you have been walking on the treadmill for 10 minutes?
Organize your music.
a) Design a playlist: If you have several sports activities, divide your music accordingly.
b) Name and time your playlist: name your playlists and time sequence according to each activity example: "Jogging Playlist" 30 minutes "Cooling off Playlist," for 2 minutes "Sprint Playlist " 10 minutes etc.
6. Are you a morning or evening person? According to research on lung function, body rhythms, temperature, and hormone levels, the optimal energy to exercise is during 6 p.m. If you are a morning person, then workout in the morning but body temperature will be at its lowest; therefore, you may be prone to injuries.
7. Do you enjoy competitive activities? Try outdoor games such as football, Basketball, or even indoors squash.
8. Do you keep a diary of your workout? Research has shown that people are motivated by keeping an offline or online journal of their workout goals. Applications are available on websites, iPhone/iPad, Blackberry, even Google Chrome. Try: Fit Day application or MyNetDiary.
9. Do you pair your activities? Do you need to finish your book? Try biking as you finish your reading at the gym.
When was the last time your family came from out of town? Organize a team activity such as hiking, a double round of tennis or rugby.

Filter useful life is rated in total gallons. You can figure out what you use. Some recommend a maximum time, often 6 months, regardless of usage. That is based on the possibility of things growing in the media!
Carbon is what takes out the chlorine. The low micron part of the filter is for other chemicals, organizms, etc. Lower micron is better in an absolute sense, but may or may not be something you need. Lower micron is same physical size will mean lower flow.
The spec data sheets on filters can be relied on for comparisons. Disregard the LARGE PRINT in the advertising hype!
I have never been a fan of whole house chlorine removal. You now have a hundreds of feet of pipe full of non-chlorinated water, and things happen.
I have noticed that the inside of the PE tubing on the outlet side of my undersink filter gets gunky looking after a while. I just replace the tub once a year.

In the 1920s, dinner dances at Louisville's Brown Hotel drew more than 1,000 guests. During band breaks, hungry revelers refueled on chef Fred Schmidt's late-night eats. His signature? The Kentucky Hot Brown, a pillowy cushion of toasted bread topped with sliced turkey and an avalanche of Mornay sauce-all broiled until golden brown. Crisp bacon strips and tomato added the final flourish.

I am suspecting a fake rating given to this product most probably by the seller of this . 110 ratings with 0 reviews throws a ridiculous amount of suspicion on this product . Searched on other websites got mixed reviews for this but this rating is very very hard to believe especially with 0 reviews!
Note : i have not used the products but have checked out the ratings based on other ecommerce websites where it has been given a below average rating . I myself buy products based on ratings mostly so dont want people getting fooled into buying a sub standard producy with a fake rating.
A good product. Pains a little... less than waxing though. Works better on short hair.. try not to keep hair too long. Giving it 4 stars coz i thought it has an attachment for facial hair as well.. but that is in some other model. Would hv loved it if that was there... otherwise great product!
This is my second epilator. I have been using the Braun and wanted to replace it with remington after using the same for 4 years.i found the former more comfortable with good results than this one.

Folsom >Food & Dining > Sudwerk Riverside Restaurant
9900 Greenback Ln, Folsom, CA | Directions 9563038.683547 -121.177420
Open at 11:30 AM
oops! – So disappointed - Food was tasteless, very dry and cold.
Used to be soooo good. What happened?? Won't go back!
3 strikes, you're out! – There are so many things to complain about, I don't know where to start. We've given this place three tries in the span of one year, each time thinking maybe we just had a random bad experience and gave them another try. Well, sorry Sudwerk Riverside, three strikes and you're out!
First, they really need to update their website. The hours for Sunday say they open at 10. But when we got there at 10:30, we discovered they really didn't open until 11 a.m. When we told the hostess about this, she just sighed and said there was nothing she could do about that. Um, how about tell your manager?! You'd think they'd want the times right since while we waited for them to open, we saw at least half a dozen people drive up and drive away once they saw it wasn't open yet.
It was a lovely Sunday morning, a little breezy though, so we were somewhat hesitant on sitting outside but gave it a try. As soon as we walked out onto their deck, one of the umbrellas went flying up onto the roof! The waiters didn't seem so concerned at the time, until, when we sat down, the umbrella came crashing down and nearly pelted my husband in the head! Needless to say, we moved inside. I asked them for a sling for the baby car seat carrier we had with us, but our waiter had no idea what I was talking about. All the restaurants we've been to have slings or at least chairs big enough to hold the baby carrier, but this place had neither. So my child was on the floor; did not make for an easy time when it came to feeding her a bottle. Their Sunday brunch menu looks really impressive, we were really excited for the mimosa or champagne that came with our meal. We decided to get the champagne while the other couple with us got their mimosas, bad choice, they were so watered down!
Onto the food, which took half an hour to get to us! We were surprised because they were not at all busy. Every one's food was cold! My husband and I ordered the eggs Benedict's. The hollandaise sauce was tasty. They serve it on foccacia bread which was heavily seasoned with herbs; didn't mix too well with the sauce. It was also served with country potatoes, which to everyone at our table, reminded us of the frozen stuff you'd make at home. Plus they were so cold it was as if they forgot to cook them and just pulled them out of their freezer!
Service was slow. Our waiter was a nice guy, just not attentive at all. To get a refill on a drink, we had to go to the bar ourselves.
This place is definitely not baby friendly. When I needed to change my daughter's diaper, I went into the restroom assuming there would be a changing table, but no. At least they had a large enough counter so I could change her on that.
On to desert, we were hoping this would save our experience, but alas, it only added to the negatives. We ordered creme brulee, my favorite, I love the creamy cool texture with the warm caramelized sugar on top. This was not that. It was more like old flan with burnt sugar and dusted with nutmeg powder and runny whipped cream. That put the nail in the coffin for us.
I must point out that we love the Sudwerk in Davis! I guess when we want a good Sudwerk's beer with a delightful meal, we'll have to make the hour long trek down there, because we will never give the Folsom one another try, ever!
The Customer is NEVER Right – The hostess working there on Sunday morning was such a beeeeeeyaaatch to me that I almost wrestled her to the ground and pounded her face in. She needs a serious lesson in customer service. I will never again step foot in this restaurant or recommend it to anybody that I know.
We had to wait 30 minutes past our supposed reservation time, were seated at a tiny and dirty table, and when I told her we moved outside (which is an option she gave us) was challenged by a bitchy little attitude. She told me that keeping the tables clean was not her job. Wow!!!! I just couldn't believe it. Not once did she say "Oh, I'm sorry about that", or anything that any other normal restaurant employee would say. She just looked at me like I was crazy for even telling her. Then she looked at the other hostess like I was there attacking her when all I was trying to do was tell her that we were now sitting outside. I told her she wouldn't last at this job another month with customer service skills like that. Then she said "Why are you attacking me?". I'm not, I'm here to have Sunday Brunch you crazy little girl!!!!!
Don't even bother with this place. It's dirty, the service stinks and the food isn't even worth the hassle.
Bad customer service!! – My lovely boyfriend decided to take me out to a nice romantic dinner for my birthday to the Cliff House. As we pulled up there were customers standing outside that just finished their dinner, and inside there were still customers eating. Closing time was in 30 min. So they were open right? As we walked up to the front counter there were two ladies standing there, and one rolled her eyes as she looked at the clock and huffed and puffed with a bad attitude. She didnt know I saw her do that. Then she proceeded to ask if we wanted to eat!..And said 'well u know we are closing in 30minutes' and she proceeded to make other excuses of why we should leave. At that point I didnt feel safe eating there knowing this nasty old woman would be serving our food. So we just left. We will never go there again. The customer service skills are well below par!
Avoid altogether – We took our parents here to Sunday brunch for their 63rd Anniversary. The restaurant and parking area was packed so we thought that was a good sign but apparently there are alot of people who have very bad taste. The food is awful. The presentation is not very good either. AND NOT CHEAP. We were seated next to window to look out onto the water which was the only good thing except it was in the bar area. We requested outdoor seating but they could not accommodate 7 people outside. The Radisson brunch is a much, much better option.
... – I was there like 3 years ago, it was my friend's birthday party. The steak I ordered was dry and tasteless and SMALL. My friend also ordered something but I dont remember what exactly, and he didn't like it either. I'm glad we didn't have to pay for the food because the birthday boy paid for everybody.
Uhhh ... gross – I walked in the restaurant, looked around, and shuddered. While decent looking from the outside, the interior is definitely in need of a complete overhaul. It smelled like and old ashtray inside, which did little to improve my opinion of the place. Admittedly, the offending smell may have been emitting from the bar flies, but it was definitely a strong odor. I walked out shortly after.
Perhaps if you go there at night in the dark it won't look all that bad and maybe they spray some air freshener before the dinner's start. Otherwise, I have no idea how anyone could expect to enjoy their meal in that slum.
You're joking – I'm sorry, I saw all of these great reviews and I'm just baffled. This was by far the worst meal I can recall in the Sacramento area. Sure, the view is great but the restaurant is tired and quite shabby. The food was an embarrassment - really not even worth mentioning. I suppose if you equate quantity with quality you'd find this a winner.
A Local Treasure – My husband and I love The Cliff House. It always satisfies! The staff is exceedingly pleasant. The food is outstanding (the best appetizer is the clams and mussels-yum!). The river view is beautiful and the ambience is very nice. This is also a great place to hold a private party.
I really recommend sitting near the fireplace inside- it makes for a memorable experience. It is getting a little tired looking and that's a shame because it is a really fine restaurant. I hope they will do a little updating soon.
Fairly Good Food- Attentive Service – Went to the Cliffhouse on a Saturday at 6:30pm. The place was 1/2 empty. A nice location but the building is rather dated and in need of a coat of paint inside & out. I had scallops wrappped in prosciutto; the prosciutto had been sliced to thickly which made eating the combination tohether rather difficult. It did have a tasty sauce and fried risotto. My wife has sea bass and said it was excellent. I'd say we would go back, but not rush back.

Software Patents > Workgroup > demo
|What to do
The FFII has organized online demonstrations against software patents in 2003 and will need to organise them again in 2004. We want you to replace the title page of your project's site with a protest page against software patents (for examples see below) during 2004/04/09-15, 2004/05/09-15 and 2004/06/09-13. If you don't want to block access to your site you can for example put a small link on the protest page as seen in one of the examples.
With software patents many sites running/serving possibly patent infringing software have to go offline sooner or later. So why not demonstrate this effect before it's too late?
It might be a good idea to include a link to the Petition and Call for Action in your demo web page, so that we can use the opportunity to increase the number of supporters. Much of the basic introductory information could be on your site, so as to avoid overloading of ffii.org. Feel free to copy the title page of swpat.ffii.org onto your demo page or to mirror the site or part of it, if you like.
Wikis are not really effective for this task. Let people register in the ffii supporter database, so that there is always an upto date list of participating pages whose participants can be alerted.

The accommodation in rooms with 2 to 6 beds and a private bathroom and the offer includes Internet, TV, Ski Storage, bicycle rental, sun terraces and meals.
What travellers think...
A very nice place but very hard to walk so far up the big hill with luggage and skis. No bus service. The hostel should use their van to provide a shuttle at the end of the ski day for people with to reserve it and pay a few francs for the service. That would be a huge help.
